However, how do I draw a digraph of the estimated model? This is a procedure which I could not find. Good work Yves. Hi,

Good work Yves.

I hadn't heard of lavaan until the conference and I'm looking forward to trying it. I'm using OpenMx but it was pointed out to me that OpenMx is not completely open as the optimization is closed source. (At least that is my understanding - please correct me if I'm wrong.) I'm applying SEM to relatively simple measurement error models in methods comparison studies where researchers have "hard" data. (It's surprising just how "soft" data from complex instruments can be!) What I need from a SEM package is the ability to compute functions of the model parameters and corresponding confidence intervals. Mx can do this (but is really tedious to use and the matrix naming is extremely limited). OpenMx either has this now or will soon (I've had problems with this feature using OpenMx but it may have to do with the relatively small sample sizes I encounter.) I hope these features will eventually be included in lavaan (along with the ability to handle dichotomous and ordinal data). I had the pleasure of meeting Yves at the recent useR! 2010 conference.
